# Grafana Pyroscope data source
|
||||
|
||||
Grafana Pyroscope is a horizontally scalable, highly available, multi-tenant, OSS, continuous profiling aggregation system. Add it as a data source, and you are ready to query your profiles in [Explore][explore].
|
||||
|
||||
To learn more about profiling and Pyroscope, refer to the [Introduction to Pyroscope](/docs/pyroscope/introduction/).
|
||||
|
||||
For information on configuring the Pyroscope data source, refer to [Configure the Grafana Pyroscope data source](./configure-pyroscope-data-source).
|
||||
|
||||
## Integrate profiles into dashboards
|
||||
|
||||
Using the Pyroscope data source, you can integrate profiles into your dashboards.
|
||||
In this case, the screenshot shows memory profiles alongside panels for logs and metrics to be able to debug out of memory (OOM) errors alongside the associated logs and metrics.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Visualize traces and profiles data using Traces to profiles
|
||||
|
||||
You can link profile and tracing data using your Pyroscope data source with the Tempo data source.
|
||||
|
||||
Combined traces and profiles let you see granular line-level detail when available for a trace span. This allows you pinpoint the exact function that's causing a bottleneck in your application as well as a specific request.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
For more information, refer to the [Traces to profile section][configure-tempo-data-source] of the Tempo data source documentation.

|
||||
|
||||
## Provision the Grafana Pyroscope data source
|
||||
|
||||
You can modify the Grafana configuration files to provision the Grafana Pyroscope data source.
|
||||
To learn more, and to view the available provisioning settings, refer to [provisioning documentation][provisioning-data-sources].
|
||||
|
||||
Here is an example configuration:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
apiVersion: 1
|
||||
|
||||
datasources:
|
||||
- name: Grafana Pyroscope
|
||||
type: grafana-pyroscope-datasource
|
||||
url: http://localhost:4040
|
||||
jsonData:
|
||||
minStep: '15s'
|
||||

# Configure the Grafana Pyroscope data source
|
||||
|
||||
To configure basic settings for the data source, complete the following steps:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Click **Connections** in the left-side menu.
|
||||
1. Under Your connections, click **Data sources**.
|
||||
1. Enter `Grafana Pyroscope` in the search bar.
|
||||
1. Click **Grafana Pyroscope** to display the **Settings** tab of the data source.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Set the data source's basic configuration options:
|
||||
|
||||
| Name | Description |
|
||||
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
|
||||
| `Name` | A name to specify the data source in panels, queries, and Explore. |
|
||||
| `Default` | The default data source will be pre-selected for new panels. |
|
||||
| `URL` | The URL of the Grafana Pyroscope instance, for example, `http://localhost:4100`. |
|
||||
| `Basic Auth` | Enable basic authentication to the data source. |
|
||||
| `User` | User name for basic authentication. |
|
||||
| `Password` | Password for basic authentication. |
|
||||
| `Minimal step` | Used for queries returning timeseries data. The Pyroscope backend, similar to Prometheus, scrapes profiles at certain intervals. To prevent querying at smaller interval, use Minimal step same or higher than your Pyroscope scrape interval. This prevents returning too many data points to the frontend. |

# Query profile data
|
||||
|
||||
The Pyroscope data source query editor gives you access to a profile type selector, a label selector, and collapsible options.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
To access the query editor:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Sign into Grafana or Grafana Cloud.
|
||||
1. Select your Pyroscope data source.
|
||||
1. From the menu, choose **Explore**.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Select a profile type from the drop-down menu.
|
||||
|
||||
{{< figure src="/media/docs/pyroscope/query-editor/select-profile.png" class="docs-image--no-shadow" max-width="450px" caption="Profile selector" >}}
|
||||
|
||||
1. Use the labels selector input to filter by labels. Pyroscope uses similar syntax to Prometheus to filter labels.
|
||||
Refer to [Pyroscope documentation](https://grafana.com/docs/pyroscope/latest/) for available operators and syntax.
|
||||
|
||||
While the label selector can be left empty to query all profiles without filtering by labels, the profile type or app must be selected for the query to be valid.
|
||||
|
||||
Grafana doesn't show any data if the profile type or app isn’t selected when a query runs.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
1. Expand the **Options** section to view **Query Type** and **Group by**.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
1. Select a query type to return the profile data. Data is shown in the [Flame Graph][flame-graph], metric data visualized in a graph, or both. You can only select both options in Explore. The panels used on dashboards allow only one visualization.
|
||||
|
||||
Using **Group by**, you can group metric data by a specified label.
|
||||
Without any **Group by** label, metric data aggregates over all the labels into single time series.
|
||||
You can use multiple labels to group by. Group by only effects the metric data and doesn't change the profile data results.
|
||||
|
||||
## Profiles query results
|
||||
|
||||
Profiles can be visualized in a flame graph.
|
||||
Refer to the [Flame Graph documentation][flame-graph] to learn about the visualization and its features.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Pyroscope returns profiles aggregated over a selected time range.
|
||||
The absolute values in the flame graph grow as the time range gets bigger while keeping the relative values meaningful.
|
||||
You can zoom in on the time range to get a higher granularity profile up to the point of a single scrape interval.
|
||||
|
||||
## Metrics query results
|
||||
|
||||
Metrics results represent the aggregated sum value over time of the selected profile type.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
This allows you to quickly see any spikes in the value of the scraped profiles and zoom in to a particular time range.
